So the brazen thug Halutz got the big job, just at the moment the Israeli high command was firming up plans for its long planned onslaught on Lebanon. It was Halutz who sold Olmert and Peretz on the fantasy of swift and devastating air force raids finishing off Hezbollah. Since then Halutz has efficiently united all Lebanese in loathing of Israel, while being an effective propagandist for Hezbollah. What better recruiter of sympathy for Lebanon than Halutz screaming "we're going to turn Lebanon back into what it was 20 years ago," and threatening to blow up a 10-floor building for every missile. By the second day in August Halutz's bombardment had achieved the extraordinary feat of prompting the Maronite Catholic patriarch - the spiritual leader of the most pro-Western populace - to assemble Lebanon's religious leaders -- Shiite and Sunni Muslims and various Christian confessions. The group issued a joint statement of solidarity, condemning the Israeli "aggression" and hailing "the resistance, mainly led by Hezbollah, which represents one of the sections of society." All Halutz knows how to do is to bomb defenseless targets. This ability does not require brain power or skill in political analysis.

never in your wildest dreems they will be a peace between us and Israel not in million years what your govenoment has done it's like a jew forgave Hitler do you ever see it happening please let me know or any of you jews who read this is any1 of you willing to forgive Hitler.

OLMERT ... DO NOT RUSH TO APOLOGIZE. EXAMINE, INVESTIGATE AND THEN WHAT CAN YOU DO, THIS IS WAR, YOU CANNOT NOW WHICH ARE HIZBA;LLAHS PLANTED BETWEEN THE FARMERS IF ANY FARMERS

Good job Olmert! So you had the Sunnis in Gaza and the Shiites in South Lebanon fighting you. You are amazing! The unthinkable has happened. You, Mr. Olmert, managed to make the Lebanese Christians, particularly the Maronites, the most anti-Hizbollah people on Earth, become supporters of Hizbollah! How did you manage to do that?! As a Maronite myself, I can't but hope you taste bitter defeat. Lebanon has always been every conqueror's nightmare, and we thought you would have learned your lesson the first time by your bitter withdrawal. We'll just put one more memorial at the Dog River to commemorate one more defeat of Lebanon's conquerors!

It is OK for the Turks to kill innocent kurds, right?

so who cares? It's not my problem. support for israel is already diminishing and will never stop diminshing for the one reason, that israel supporters will very predictably turn around and attack those people who might just possibly be willing to give support but have their various personal objections to israeli conduct with the charge of "anti-semitism," as if most of us haven't already started tuning that snoozefest out. Oh well, not my problem anyway, just try and convince me that it is!!!

Ya right - probably Syrian military advisors. Any truck in the region is fair game at present.

According to your suggestion why don't we ask our goverment to sit down and finalize a peace deal with ben laden. You can not broker a peace deal with Terrorists bottom line. It seems that alot of people are forgetting how all this started. It is not what Israel wanted. They left Lebanon in 2000 because they wanted to leave not because they were forced. And what did these freaks do? They kidnapped two soldiers and you want Israel to sit and finalize a peace deal!!!!! NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!!! Peace deal According to Israel: two countries living side by side Peace deal according to Hezballah: Release of prisoners that have blood on there hands.

you spend your time telling that France doesn't like the war, but WE have understood that it is better to keep quiet instead of doing such stupidity on the nale of the FREEDOMM* what freedom? what are you doing there? if you go on thinking "attacking instead of being attacked" you will spend your life like this but history shoes that force balance can change within a few years it is better to stop one day and say sorry It is better if you change your governement because they are doing very bad for your children THE REAL STRONG ONE IS THE ONE WHO CAN INTIMIDATE WITHOUT ANY ACT

may be all the us citizens are ?????

I am watching Al-Jazira now .. Wait till you see what your IAF has done with 35 poor farmers.. humen pieces are scattered everywhere!!!! Are you Humen ??? WHAT ARE YOU ??? Which Planet are you from ?? Are you from the Same Adam and Eve ??????? Cowards...

Shalom I just seen the picture on german TV ,why you bombing everything who mooves IDF bastards,does the 33 farmers works also for Hizboulla ? wake up Mr. Olmert shit,this way you are faking the state of israel.

I recommend you do a little more reading into the Lebanese politics before you recommend that Israel starves all the Lebanese to death. How about recommending concentration camps? It is comments and attitudes like yours that will turn all Lebanon into Hezbollah-land.

What is this world comming to? Im so speachless, realy! Israel calls its self civilized? killing innocent civilians? I cannot even believe some of these comments. You people are sick and beyond any therapy. I am ashamed of G.W.Bush and the US govt for supporting israel. and the most thing that hurts is i know that MY TAX $$ is being used to kill innocent people. I think we (americans) are fighting the wrong people when it comes to terrorism. Yet again israel proves it self to be the mother of all terrorism and they are proving that HZB are freedom fighters not terrorist as you claim.

Before you accuse people of being idiots try to check any TV station that is not Israeli, BBC, Euro News or Aljazeera and you will see that all the massacred people are farmers, civilians, many of them are children. Go to Aljazeera now and you will see with your eyes. And if you have a bit of humanity you will be ashmed of "Israel" and of being Israeli. Your army is trying to hide its defeat against the Lenanese resistence men by bombing civilians!! And this is to Idiot who said that these people were killed in a war zone: It seems that have no clue about geography (probably you are American) and you don't know that the area were these people were bombed is in the farest piont in Lebanon from the Palestinian-Lebanese borders, and it is being targeted for the first time since teh start of this aggression on Lebanon. Just today, with the blood of over 33 Arab and Kurdish civilians it became a war zone. I guarantee for you, that the hatred Israel is creating these days will last for at least 100 year ahead. Enjoy being hated and let's see how your army and US friends will help you.

One day this will all come back to the jewish people. If the intelligent, moral jews that are left in the world do not stand up and say " Enough is enough!" then they too will pay the price of this madness. It is time to make a stand or be judged in the same manner as the war criminals leading your military and government will be. At that time there will be no sympathy for anyone of you.

Do you think kiling more people in lebanon and palestine will make other nations love you. Zionists are meeting Zionist “Hizbulla”, and whose face is getting smacked who.

I watched the news I saw what your smart (stupid) bomb did so far if the truck has any missiles in it would.ve blown big time you moron who write stupid comments. and what make it worth some D...H... from the US comments about militiry action take it from people who have the lowest IQ in the world. and as people from Israel you meant have served in the Army and know how things are when you blow up truck full of arms and missiles. Jews blinded by hate

why do idf not fight like men man to man because they are coward they are using the f16 and planes to fight if realy they are a men fight on the land and see what well happen!!!!!!

There have never been any winners in war and times aint gonna change now. why are the iaf making such serious mistakes?? 3 in the last 3 months. 1. the gaza beach bombing 2. the u.n.f.i.l troops in lebanon 3. the fruit farm attack. the one thing the iaf have failed to do is stop the f..ing rockets!!

Today morning IDF bombarded north Beirut where it is 100% christians area.Can someone explain why?unless it is true that this is a war against Lebanon.You keep on saying this war is against Hizbollah and not the lebanese so how do you fit what happened today.Please don't rediculize yourself more by coming up with a story like Hezbollah firing from those christian area or from the Casino! if he fires fron that north even his long range missile will still hit south Lebanon.All what you are doing is consolidating all Lebanese behind Hezbollah.Today Christians where praying for Nasrallah and asking God to protect him and give him vistory.

So 33 ordianary farm workers have been killed in airstrike,huh? If that is indeed the case, then that is rather tragic indeed. It is one more set of deaths that I would attribute to the action of the pro death and destruction hezbollah crowd. It should be very noticeable, that there are no fireworks in Isreal in celebration of these deaths unlike the blood thirsty hordes in Beruit and the West Bank and Gaza. There will be less deaths of innocents if the Hezbollah bravados, who ostensibly want to meet their six dozen virgins in heaven, make themselves more available for early dispatch.

Germans systematically rounded up Jews and shipped them off to be cleanly exterminated. France collaborated with them. The Swiss helped them financially. The Greeks happily rounded up their Jews to hand over. Canada and the UK turned back refugees. Today, Jews live peacefully in all those countries. Do you see Jews running around screaming about their "humiliation" and vowing vengence for all eternity? No, you don't. There can be peace, but people like you also have to be willing to put aside the vengeance-to-eternity.

in Hebrew pommegranites the same as grenades "rimon" and "rimon-yad"

Aye and you lot don't mind living off the monies stolen by dictators, criminals etc from the poor of whichever country they are from. Another thought, why is it that you people carry and give home to the most weapons outside of Arabia if you are so peaceful and lawabiding? And, who's the worst, the person who does the killing or the Swiss banker who pays for the weapons? You hypocrite.

You must remember the bombs your people planted in pillar boxes to justify their crazy desire to be French? So I guess that you know how Hezbullah can disguise anything when it suits. However you are entitled to your opinion even having French blood and even why no-one can give any reason why their is a nation called French since they have never defended it without the help of others. Perhaps that's why you now reside in Canada?

no...the real question is why is hezbollah retarded if you attack someone with an F-16, you can be damn sure that he isn't going to just throw rocks at you or call you names. no, he will attck you with his F-16. Hezbollah knows that Israel has more military capacity than Hezbollah will ever have. It is stupid to anger an enemy who is stronger than you are. Israel is just being smart and using planes to do the worlds dirty work instead of its citizens. why should we "fight on land and see what happens"?? If we attack from above, we know what will happen.
